' THE SOCIAL HIGHWAYMAN*
AT OPEBA HOUSE, JUNE 20 i
___ j J
The story of "The Social Highway- j i
man" is that of Curtis Jaffray, whose <
hoy ideal is Claude DuVal, who stole' J
from the rich to give to the poor. Cur- 1
tis was the offspring of a mesalliance
which resulted in his being brought
up in such bitter poverty that his
mother, before his birth, was driven j
to thievery to obtain food. When |
Curtis reached .the age of twelve the- '
parents were horrified at the discovery
that he had inherited through pre-!
natal influences a tendency to steal.;
How in later years, when he inherited j
the title and astates of his grand- 1
father, the fashionable stratum cf so- ciety
is startled by a series of daring *
thefts, his epcial secretary kills the j
Countess Rcssi. 3:is wife, who deserted '
him in former, years, and later .kills
himself, declaring i:i his dying words
that he committed the mystifying
thefts, is all excellently portrayed in ;
this melodrama in which is interi
spersed one of the sweetest romances j
e.er filmed. It is a sociological play;,
different from the rest and one that is j
bound to please. To be shown at the.
